Stephen Lang teases that Don't Breathe 3 plans may be in the works, hinting at his excitement to return to playing his iconic Blind Man role.

With the previous film already hinting at his return, Stephen Lang teases plans may be in the works for a Don't Breathe 3. Lang led the cast of the first two horror movies as Norman Nordstrom, better known as The Blind Man, a U.S. Navy SEAL veteran who picked up near-superhuman hearing abilities in the wake of being injured during the Gulf War. The original Don't Breathe film saw The Blind Man square off against a trio of home invaders looking to take the money hidden in his rundown Detroit home, while the second saw him trying to rescue a young girl he claims to be his daughter, though their ties are more

In a recent interview with ComingSoon.net to discuss the horror-thriller Old Man, Stephen Lang opened up about the various sequels he's been involved with throughout the years. When looking specifically at the Don't Breathe franchise, the Blind Man actor discussed how he separates his iconic horror character in his brain, while teasing plans to return to him for a Don't Breathe 3. See what Lang shared below:

Well, it depends on the role. I find with the sequels you’re talking about, Don’t Breathe. It’s not difficult for me to open the door into the Blind Man’s brain, you know? It’s not a place I want to spend a huge amount of time [laughs] unless that’s what I’m doing, and when I’m doing it, when I’m in the Blind Man, it’s a very interesting place to be. I’ve enjoyed, if that’s the right word, but I guess it is, I enjoyed filming Don’t Breathe and Don’t Breathe 2 very, very much. Just as I plan to enjoy filming Don’t Breathe 3.

Though no official announcement has been made about a potential third film, this isn't the first time someone involved in the franchise has teased the possibility of Don't Breathe 3. In the lead up to Don't Breathe 2's release, Rodo Sayagues, who co-wrote the original with Evil Dead's Fede Álvarez and made his directorial debut on the sequel, previously hinted that another movie could be made with Jane Levy's Rocky returning to the fold. This was a plot point seemingly set up at the end of the first Don't Breathe, in which The Blind Man survived his encounter with her and didn't mention her or the stolen cash to the police responding to the situation, hinting at Lang's character hunting down the sole survivor.
